At this time, some people were studying hard with books in their hands, some were sitting by the bed mending clothes with great concentration, and some were squatting in the yard washing.
When they saw Qin Wan returning, they gathered around and asked:
"How's it going? Have you found a suitable house?"
Qin Wan shook her head slightly and replied, "No. However, the captain did recommend a place for me, the home of a woman named Wang Chunfang. He said her house is the best."
"Oh? It's that Widow Wang! I heard she's quite nice. She was once a glorious military wife. She has a gentle personality and is warm and welcoming. Everyone in the village likes her very much.
Unfortunately, after her husband passed away, her shrewd and mean mother-in-law and her overbearing sister-in-law would frequently come to her house to cause trouble.
The old educated youth Zhang Cuihong sighed and said.
"Oh, it's troublesome. But according to common sense, even if they are looking for trouble, they shouldn't point the finger at me, right?"
Qin Wan said thoughtfully.
Ma Yingli on the side shook her head and responded firmly:
"That's hard to say! Some people in this village are very arrogant and unreasonable! As long as you live in Widow Wang's house, when they cause trouble, they might involve you."
Hearing this, Qin Wan couldn't help but frowned, but then relaxed again. She said firmly:
"Actually, to me, it doesn't make much difference whether they cause trouble or not. I'm not the kind of soft persimmon that allows itself to be bullied. If they dare to deliberately cause trouble for me, hmph, I definitely won't let them off so easily!"
At this time, Shen Shuping, who had been silent all this time, interrupted:
"When it comes to living environment and housing conditions, Wang Chunfang's house is undoubtedly the best. After all, it was built by Wang Chunfang's husband himself when he was still alive. I heard that he even borrowed a large sum of money from the army to build this house.
It’s a pity that he passed away later. I really don’t know how her debts were finally dealt with…”
For Qin Wan, what she cares about most at the moment is not other factors, but whether she can find an independent residence that belongs entirely to her and where she can act freely.
After all, only by doing so can she handle all kinds of matters smoothly and smoothly in a more efficient and convenient way.
When weighing factors at other levels, they are not as important in comparison.
Since Widow Wang's house just met her needs, she no longer thought about what kind of troubles she would encounter living here. After all, her stay here would not be too long.
The next morning, Qin Wan took Wang Liming's hand and said to her:
"Liming, accompany me to the captain's house. Then accompany me to Widow Wang's house."
Wang Liming readily agreed:
"Okay! As you command!"
When the captain and his three companions arrived at the door of Widow Wang's house, the captain shouted outside:
"Is Sister Chunfang at home?"
"Yes." Then someone came hurriedly to the door.
When Qin Wan heard Widow Wang's voice, she was startled. Why did this voice sound so familiar? Could Widow Wang be one of the wild mandarin ducks she had met yesterday?
